In thispaper we give a 3-approximationalgorithmfor the problem ojJnding a minimum tree spanning any k-vertices in a graph. Our algorithm extends to a 3-approximationalgorithmfor t...
We show that the standard linear programming relaxation for the tree augmentation problem in undirected graphs has an integrality ratio that approaches 3 2 . This refutes a conjec...

The linear systems associated with large, sparse, symmetric, positive deļ¬nite matrices are often solved iteratively using the preconditioned conjugate gradient method. We have d...
Barrier trees are a convenient way of representing the structure of complex combinatorial landscapes over graphs. Here we generalize the concept of barrier trees to landscapes deļ...
Bodlaenderās Theorem states that for every k there is a linear-time algorithm that decides whether an input graph has tree width k and, if so, computes a width-k tree compositio...
